Summarize an interesting story from mythology that your god is a part of: One day Artiemis was hunting in the forest with her pack of hunting dogs, when they ran into Orion, the mighty hunter. Orion said that Artemis had the finest hunting dogs he had ever seen and was very respectful to the goddess. Artemis was pleased with how he treated her. Soon, Artemis and Orion became fast friends and hunting companions. During the day, Artemis and Orion challenged each other to hunting, foot races, storytelling, and archery. In the evenings, they sat around a fire and talked about their lives and secrets. Apollo, Artemis's twin brother, was getting worried that Orion and and his sister were becomeing to close of friends, so he went into the forest and found them. He petended that he was happy to meet Orion when he really didn't, but when Artemis left them together, he got to like Orion. Then, Orion mentioned his sister and anger ran through his body because now he was envious of his sister's friend. He left in an angry huff. Soon, Artemis found Orion crying because he had made Apollo mad. She comforted him, then they left for their own houses. That night, Orion had a terrible dream about a scorpion that had invinsible armor and he could not kill, it almost killed him. When he awoke he was relived that it had only been a dream. When he opened his door, though, there was a scorpion that had invinsible armor that Apollo had sent. Orion ran to the sea and tried to out swim it. Apollo was with his sister while this was happening, and he told her that an evil man attacked one of her friends during the night and that he was trying to swim to and island at this very moment to gat away. She instantly grabbed her bow and ran to the beach. Apollo pointed out a speck in the horizon that was Orion, but he said that it was the evil man. Artemis killed the speck with one arrow. When she later learned that she had killed Orion, She found his body and took it to the great healer, Asclepius, but Orion was already dead. So, even as sad as she was, she took him and put him in the sky as the constellation, Orion.
